1. So sorry to hear this. Knowing nothing of the UK educational system, I'm

no help. I understand your plight though. My son to is very bright and was under stimulated to say the least. He did poorly because he frankly sickened of the re-teaching of materials he had learned. My attempts to get him to see he needed to play the game never succeeded. He attended one of the 'best' schools. Obviously, not the best in my book.

Don't stop fighting for your son. His future is at stake! Keep us posted...please. Good luck!

3. So there were no classes offered in the unit where he was placed for 2 years? That seems odd.

No way to have a visiting teacher keep him up on his work?

Here in the States we have several ways of earning a high school diploma without finishing at an actual school -- homeschooling, and earning a GED (General Equivalency Diploma). Are similar options available for you?
